Answer:

1/3

Explanation:

<em>A standard monohybrid cross is a cross that follows the dominance/recessive pattern from Mendel's experiment.</em>

It means the purple flower color is dominant over the white flower color.

Assuming the allele for purple flower color is P and that of the white flower color is p, a standard monohybrid cross will involve a true breeding PP and pp.

PP   x   pp: Pp, Pp, Pp and Pp. All the F1 offspring will have purple flowers with Pp genotype.

At F2: Pp   x   Pp = PP, Pp, Pp, and pp.

3/4 or 75% of the F2 offspring have purple flower color out of which 1 is true breeding for the trait.

Hence the fraction of the purple flowered peas in the F2 that is expected to be true-breeding (PP) is 1 out of 3.

Answer:

The correct answer would be D)  tissue.

In biology, the level of organisation from simplest to complex level can be summarized as:

Organelles → cells → tissues → organs → organ systems → organisms → populations →communities → ecosystem → biosphere.

It is clear that tissue is organization level that exists between cells and organs.

When similar cells are assembled together to perform specific function, the assembly or this organization is said to be the tissue.

There can be different types of tissues such as muscle tissue, nerve tissue et cetera.

Similarly, tissues arrange themselves to carry out specific function in the form of organ.

For example, heart is made up of cardiac tissue.
